The Reds have been able to extend the loan of the Villa fullback. But only ’til the end of January rather than the end of the season as we’d hoped. Still, this is good news as it’s patently obvious from looking at our squad we need a left-back, and Nicky Shorey has been absolute class [...]

The last year of the ‘noughties’ has been a fairly eventful one for the Reds, in a decade that has been – for the most part – fairly inauspicious. We have spent the last ten years languishing in the second tier, worse still, we had a three year sabbatical in the third – we had [...]
